Bucs fans, sign up HERE to join FanPulse.How confident are you in the direction of the team? Last week: 86 percent confidenceAfter defeating the New Orleans Saints to open the season, Bucs fans are riding a high. Sure, this marks the third straight season Tampa Bay has opened the season with a victory. But this felt different. This was against a division opponent that is projected to contend for the Super Bowl, coming off a playoff run the season prior. Will the Bucs win or lose in Week 2?Odds: Eagles are 3-point favoritesBleeding Green Nation FanPulse: Eagles by 9Bucs Nation FanPulse: Bucs by 3I would have been more surprised if Eagles fans went against their own team here. This will be yet another week where I honestly feel the Buccaneers will pull off another upset.Other than QB, what is most valuable to an NFL offense? Could the Bucs snag a veteran with Super Bowl experience?"Antoine Bethea has been one of the league’s best safeties for over a decade. A former sixth-round pick out of Howard way back in 2006 by the Indianapolis Colts, Bethea has been nothing if not remarkable. He won a Super Bowl with the Colts under former Tampa Bay head coach Tony Dungy http://www.buccaneerslockerroom.com/authentic-vernon-hargreaves-iii-jersey , and is a three-time Pro Bowler. He most recently played for the Arizona Cardinals, including one year under Bruce Arians in 2017. He turns 35 in July.ANTOINE BETHEA’S CAREERAntoine Bethea has had one hell of a career. He’s accumulated over 1,200 tackles (over 900 of them solo tackles), nine forced fumbles, 24 interceptions, and 75 passes defensed in 184 starts over his thirteen-year career. That kind of production has earned him over $50 million over the course of his career. WHY THE BUCCANEERS NEED HIMThe Bucs have a lot of young but unproven - and arguably undeveloped - talent at safety, including Justin Evans, M.J. Stewart Bryan Anger Jersey , Jordan Whitehead, and Isaiah Johnson. Adding an experienced vet like Bethea, who has worked with Arians before and has Super Bowl experience, could bring a lot to the table. Even if Bethea can’t earn a starting job, he could help mentor and teach the younger guys. WHAT WILL BETHEA COST?Bethea’s cap hit with the Cardinals last season was just $3.6 million. Coming up on 35, the Bucs could likely get him for cheaper than that. Tampa Bay currently has the least amount of salary cap space in the NFL. Cuts are coming, and the Buccaneers have holes to fill. WILL IT HAPPEN?It very well could! If Bethea still wants to play, and believes he can play Gerald McCoy Jersey , he would be a low-risk moderate-reward type player for somewhere at or a bit above the veteran minimum. Bethea once ran a 4.36 40-yard dash at the NFL Combine. He’s sure to be a step or two slower now, but he might still be an impact type player for the Bucs. If not on the field, then surely at least off of it. He would know Arians’ system, and can help teach it and other techniques to the younger players. He knows what it takes to win, and he’s affordable.
